Recognize yourself (this article is priceless)

Recognize yourself (this article is priceless)

Good morning, accompany you to read.

in Athens, Greece, there is an Apollo temple with the words "know yourself" engraved on the slate of the lintel.

in life, many people spend their lives speculating about others, but seldom explore themselves.

Laozi once said, "he who knows others is wise, and he who knows himself is wise."

01

recognize your position

host Bai Yansong once said: "Let a dog on CCTV every day, you can become a famous dog." But you know, without the stage of CCTV, it may not be long before it will become a country dog. "

although it is a joke, it is worth pondering.

in life, as soon as many people gain power, they become above the top or blindly confident.

people who don't know where they are will only get lost.

Rui Chenggang used to be a CCTV celebrity, but in all kinds of flowers and applause, he gradually lost himself, made a slip of the tongue, made a mistake in doing things, and ended up in prison.

after Yue Yunpeng became famous, he also had a period of expansion, but later he realized that Deyun Society had made him successful, so he came to his senses in time.

the greatest stupidity of a person is to mistake the platform for his ability.

the higher you praise yourself, the worse you will fall.

as the saying goes, "people are expensive with self-knowledge."

most of the time, the reason why you can get the glory at the top is not because you are tall, but because you stand high.

recognize your position so that you can stay away from arrogance, make fewer mistakes, and move on steadily.

02

recognize your bottom line

the poet Goethe once said, "it doesn't matter whether you are born noble or humble, but you must have the way to be a man."

this way of being a man refers to the bottom line of being a man.

the bottom line is the embodiment of our character.

if a person has no bottom line, no matter how high his status is, it is difficult to win the respect of others.

to recognize and keep your own bottom line, you are responsible to others as well as to yourself.

once there was a dealer who wanted to cooperate with Dong Mingzhu's brother, saying that he would give him 20 to 30 thousand kickbacks as long as he could get 1 million of the order.

Dong Mingzhu's brother confidently agreed, feeling that it was time to get rich.

but unexpectedly, Dong Mingzhu simply refused.

after this incident, the two brothers and sisters broke up completely and did not communicate with each other for many years.

but Dong Mingzhu never regretted it, because she knew that once she agreed to it, she would not only violate the company's rules, but also make herself lose her integrity.

as the saying goes, "A gentleman has something to do and something not to do."

the bottom line is the foundation for a person and an enterprise to settle down.

Lin Dan once said: "the ball is out of bounds, a point lost can be fought back, being a man and doing things has crossed the bottom line, and what is lost may never be undone!"

when you are alive, you must recognize your bottom line.

once you break the bottom line and act recklessly, the end result will only be to hurt others and yourself.

03

recognize one's own ability

Psychology, there is a phenomenon called "Duck effect".

some people tend to overestimate their abilities, and the worse a person's ability is, the more serious this overestimation is.

in other words, the more stupid a person is, the more he likes to be self-righteous.

but if you put on a swollen face and make yourself fat, you will be the one who suffers in the end when you do things beyond your ability.

A truly wise man can recognize the boundaries of his abilities and know how to stop in time.

once there was a mountaineer who had been preparing for several years to conquer Mount Everest.

but when he climbed to 7000 meters above sea level, he resolutely chose to retreat.

many people were puzzled. He replied, "7000 meters is already a miracle for me."

although reaching the top is only one step away from him, he knows his limit and his ability will only put his life in danger.

as the saying goes, "if you don't have such a big head, don't wear such a big hat."

what a person fears most is not his lack of ability, but his overestimation of his ability.

do your best and act according to your ability.

only by recognizing your own ability and knowing how many pounds you have, can you survive better in this complicated world.

04

recognize your goals

there is a hot question on Zhihu: "what do you do at the age of 25 will benefit a lot in five years' time?"

there is a high praise answer: "at the age of 25, you must be clear about your goal in life, and then unswervingly strive for it."

I think so.

what really widens the gap between people is not the level of EQ and IQ, but the ability to recognize their goals.

knowing what you really want is the first step to success.

in the early days of Ren Zhengfei's founding of Huawei, technology was not the only option.

at that time, industries such as real estate and financial investment were in a dividend period and could reap amazing returns in a short period of time.

he was once suggested to change direction, but he refused without hesitation, sticking to his original choice wholeheartedly and only following the technical route.

it is precisely with this sober understanding and insistence that he is unmoved by external objects that he can lead Huawei to the world step by step.

there is a saying: "the most difficult thing for a person to follow is the mind. It is very difficult not to forget the original ideal and ambition, and it is even more difficult to stick to the original heart."

will there be any road to life?If there are several forks in the road, if you are not careful, you may go astray.

only by recognizing and recognizing one's own goal clearly can we go further and further on the right path.

05

recognize your own value

as the saying goes, "A ruler is long, but an inch is short."

everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Only when we know ourselves well can we give full play to our strengths and circumvent our weaknesses.

in many cases, choice is much more important than effort.

in the wrong direction, it's no use trying again.

recognizing your own value and choosing the right direction is half the success.

Mark Twain's achievements in literature are obvious to all, but little is known about the business experience of this great writer.

the first time I invested in a typewriter project, I invested a lot of money before and after, and lost all of it.

I worked as a publisher for the second time, but because I didn't know anything about finance or management, the company went bankrupt and was heavily in debt.

in desperation, he had no choice but to give up business, full-time writing and speaking.

inadvertently inserting willow into shade, unexpectedly, with the business he didn't like at first, he not only paid off his debts, but also accumulated some wealth.

there is a saying: "A person's choice often hides his luck."

what you like is not necessarily what you are good at.

recognize your own value and find what you are good at, you will get twice the result with half the effort.

people have two eyes. They can see the world, everything and others, but few people see themselves.

in this life, the most important thing is not to pay attention to others, but to recognize yourself.

Don't think too highly of yourself, overestimate yourself, and don't think too low of yourself, and it's easy to belittle yourself by underestimating yourself.

only by seeing yourself clearly, can you gradually find your own position and control the direction of life;

only by seeing yourself clearly can you constantly cultivate yourself and surpass yourself in the Ashram of life.
